Hi

Although there are quite a few 'anglers' on Planet Catfish; have you read the 'About'? in the drop down menu bar, which explains what this site was set up for.
I think that maybe you are after a "Monster fish" angling site.

I find myself in agreement with Eric, C sodalis,
BTW, just for curiosity what's your pH reading ?

a photo of a ventral view my also help in their identity

I will have to try and have a good look the next time I get an invite to visit Norway

CotM links for 2015 down ,

CoTM links down

Also Shanes World is down :(( Fatal error: Uncaught Error: Call to undefined function article_list() in /home/webcat/planetcatfish.com/shanesworld/index.php:79 Stack trace: #0 /home/webcat/planetcatfish.com/shanesworld/index.php(31): arn_shanesworld_index_page_guts('all', 'reproduction') #1 {main} t...

There seems to be a few down Jools, Starting with Achrocordonicthys rugosus.

it is also down similarly on the Peckoltia Sabaji page in the cat-clog. You get this message:- Fatal error: Uncaught Error: Call to undefined function article_link() in /home/webcat/planetcatfish.com/common/functions/arn_articles.php:30 Stack trace: #0 /home/webcat/planetcatfish.com/common/functions...

Its the same Jools when trying to view the information on the Cory drop down menu

keep us updated on your progress Dieter

I also use a pump to get oxigen into the water (10 times a day for 15 minutes).

You need to increase the Oxygen levels to be constantly on 24 hrs a day.

Also have you checked Shanes World article of "The mysterious Red Lizard Catfish" in reproduction? It is a great article .

Is one that many keep at these temperatures
I have in my tank at the moment

do you still require the L007 to be rehomed?

Corydoras atropersonatus are found in amongst leaf litter where the water is acidic, so be aware that although the will exist in a neutral pH, they tend not to be as resilient to disease and infections or be as sharp in colouration at that level. It may be best if you check on the water requirement...

I too kept these in a 20 gallon (imperial) for some time. Like Shane says they are not very active; unless it is feeding time, and they do like some areas to disappear into and they do, do better with a good current in the water. I think that some sources that show a photo of a Pseudolaguvia species...

There is an article on breeding these in Shanesworld, reproduction

I too at first thought it was similar to , but it looks more akin to

Hard one to say exactly what wrong; however, try treating with a wide range bacteria remedy and keep an eye on things. Something like Melafix.

I would say yes to . However; some 'Xyliphus species' from the same area came into Europe under the name Xyliphius cf lepturus recently .

I saw this about 20 years ago on a very large Royal Panaque (20"+) The guy was a very experienced Fish keeper of some reknown; unfortuneatly he was unable to cure it and if I remember correctly he tried everything. I have never seen this since until now. Hopefully one of todays diagnosis and me...

Thanks guys, wood cats are not really my thing , but these looked nice.

Just picked up a group of these, I think maybe centromochlus existimatus ??
Or has someone got an alternative I.D.

Hemiloricaria castroi

the pattern would indeed match well with the species description of H. castroi.
However, the snout should be more acute in that species.

Cheers,

Hi Karsten

What about sexual dymorphism, as in the shape of the snout?

Maybe?

HI bekateen

The link provided appears not to be working.

The nitrate levels are a tad high, which will be a factor in secondary infections of catfish that require a high level of good water quality. I would recommend using Melafix and carrying out more water changes; say, 20% every 48 hours, for ten days and you should see a noticeable improvement after o...

Sounds as it is a secondary infection of some kind. Usually, the skin will heal by itself, but something has to be causing periodic inflamation. In cases like this I usually check all my water parimeters first even if the fish(s) are appearing to eat. Have you checked your water and if so can you po...

Paying for one specific piece of information, is too much. I'm sorry you feel that way. The research done on this particular news worthy item has taken the CSG team time and effort to find; it takes time, effort and money to produce the quarterly journal for its subscribers, anyone who subscribes w...

Looks to me to be a very nice Erethistes Filamentosa
